Summary of the contracting process

The OFFICE OF RAIL AND ROAD is seeking proposals for the contract titled "EU Media Monitoring" within the services industry, specifically related to news-agency services. Located in London, the tender is currently in the award stage following its active period, which closed on 24 April 2018. The awarded contract amounts to £18,204 and is set to commence on 4 May 2018, lasting for two years until 3 May 2020. The procurement process was conducted using an open procedure, catering to businesses below the threshold of £25,000.

This opportunity for media monitoring presents significant growth potential, particularly for SMEs specialising in news aggregation, reporting, or rail-related content. Companies capable of delivering comprehensive media summaries across various platforms and languages would be particularly well-positioned to compete for future contracts in this sector, especially considering the evolving landscape following the UK's exit from the EU. Adeptness in navigating governmental and legislative changes will be advantageous for any aspiring bidders.

Notice Title

EU Media Monitoring

Notice Description

ORR operates within the context of a dynamic and complex European rail market and legislative framework. To achieve our strategic objectives, we need to: * Demonstrate the benefits of competition, market opening, and risk-based safety regulation to European governments, stakeholders and EU institutions. * Influence the drafting and negotiation process for EU legislation. * Help to implement EU law in the UK, alongside DfT, in the best way for UK customers and funders. * Be alert to European developments in the rail market - emulating best practice and learning from the experience of others. * Help government and industry to navigate change associated with the UK's exit from the European Union. To do this we require a regular, reliable summary of media clippings from across Europe. We require a daily clippings summary of rail-related news from across Europe, by email. Breadth is important - both in terms of geography, themes (from safety incidents to business takeovers) and language. We would like clippings from print-based media (newspapers and trade journals) and, if possible, online sources. The contract is for a two year period, allowing us to reassess our future requirements after the UK's exit from the EU. Additional information: This tender closes on 24/04/2018 at 12pm. All communication must be made via the portal.
